Liquid Intelligent Technologies has donated more than 130 million Rwandan francs to the Ministry of Unity and National Cohesion (MINUBUMWE) to support programs preserving the history of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
The technology company, in partnership with Imbuto Foundation, has been running programs for four years aimed at educating young people and safeguarding genocide memorials. The initiatives include Igihango cy’Urungano, which teaches youth about Rwanda’s history, and the use of digital tools to document and maintain historical artifacts at memorial sites. Over the next decade, Liquid Intelligent Technologies plans to contribute roughly $1 million to the effort.
Sam Nkusi, CEO of Liquid Intelligent Technologies, said technology helps young people and others unfamiliar with Rwanda’s history access accurate information.
“The goal is to ensure these memories are never forgotten, especially by the youth,” Nkusi said. “If this history is not preserved and made visible, false narratives could persist.”
Dr. Bizimana Jean Damascene, Minister of Unity and National Cohesion, said preserving history is a national responsibility.
“This partnership ensures that our history is documented and shared accurately,” he said. “It is our duty to leave a good legacy for future generations.”
Shami Elodie, CEO of Imbuto Foundation, praised the collaboration for its role in teaching youth and safeguarding historical sites.
The Ntarama memorial in Bugesera District has already been renovated with modern preservation methods. Work on the Nyange memorial, another key genocide site, is expected to be completed by June 2025, at a cost of about 100 million Rwandan francs.
